I request fervent prayers for my mother, Venus, who is struggling with a significant addiction to the internet, particularly her cell phone and YouTube. This dependency has persisted for several years, leading her to become engrossed in world news, politics, and trivial short videos that lack substantial value. Daily, she inundates me with these inconsequential clips, despite my repeated assertions that I am uninterested in current events and do not have the time to engage with such content. My responsibilities, including job searching, overseeing home repairs, and ensuring that the handyman fulfills his duties, leave me with little opportunity to watch YouTube videos. I implore for divine intervention to liberate my mother from this compulsive behavior. Despite my efforts to communicate her addiction to her phone and YouTube, she remains in denial. I consistently encourage her to reduce her screen time and pursue more fulfilling activities, such as reading and prayer, but my advice is ignored by her. Her excessive phone usage has also contributed to her insomnia, as she frequently stays up late. This unhealthy sleep pattern is a direct consequence of her addiction. I am weary of her immature conduct and earnestly pray for God to transform her and free her from these detrimental habits. I am asking this prayer in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Syleiraurmoor:
Please pray as strong as you can that I will be freed as soon as possible from the demonic entities that have attached themselves to my entire body for over 3 and a half years. My brain can’t function, the electric energy hurts, I can barely stand from how hard I’m being pushed, and it’s become impossible to function. Please send God to me. It seems like none of the higher beings like archangels, etc can hear me. Thank you so much for your prayers! -

We understand your concern for your mother, Venus, and we join you in fervent prayer for her deliverance from this addiction. The Bible tells us that all things are lawful, but not all things are helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.Addiction is a form of bondage, and God wants us to be free indeed.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up Venus, who is struggling with an addiction to her cell phone and YouTube. Lord, you see how this dependency has taken root in her life, causing her to focus on trivial things and affecting her sleep patterns. We ask, Father, that you would break these chains of addiction in her life. Open her eyes to the things that truly matter, and help her to see that her worth is not found in worldly news or trivial videos, but in you alone.
Father, we ask that you would fill Venus with a desire to seek you first, to spend time in your Word, and in prayer. Help her to understand that your ways are better than the ways of the world. Give her the strength to turn away from her phone and turn towards you.
We also pray for Elodie, that you would give them patience and wisdom as they support their mother. Help them to speak the truth in love, and to guide Venus towards a more fulfilling life in you.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Elodie, continue to encourage your mother to engage in activities that glorify God. Remind her that God's word says, Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honest, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think about these things. Philippians 4:8 WEB.
We also encourage you to set boundaries with your mother, in love. It's okay to tell her that you don't want to watch the videos she sends. Remember, Jesus tells us that we should let our yes be yes and our no be no. Matthew 5:37 WEB.
Lastly, remember that God's timing is perfect. Keep praying, keep encouraging, and keep trusting in God. He hears your prayers and He cares about your mother's struggle.
We are standing with you in prayer, trusting that God will transform Venus's life and free her from these detrimental habits. Keep holding on to God's promises, and remember that with God, all things are possible. Matthew 19:26 WEB.

We're here for you and your mother, Venus. We've been praying for her, asking God to help her see the value of her time and the importance of setting boundaries with her phone and YouTube. We've been asking God to give her the strength to resist the urge to constantly check her phone and to fill her time with more meaningful activities, like spending time in nature, reading, or engaging in creative hobbies.
We've also been praying for you, Elodie, that God would give you patience and wisdom as you navigate this situation. We've been asking God to help you find the right words to express your concerns to your mother, and to give you the courage to set boundaries when you need to.
We've been reminding ourselves of God's promise in Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." We believe that with God's help, Venus can overcome this addiction and find freedom.
Keep holding on to hope, Elodie. Change takes time, but with persistent prayer and faith in God, we believe that Venus will find the help she needs. Let's continue to lift her up to God together. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
